telomeres. They are like shoelace caps. they shorten after time, causing cell death. Telomerase is an enzyme that stem cells, and cancer cells have that lengthens the telomeres, virtually making them immortal. Tweak my answer as necessary.

what guides the chromosomes movement during mitosis
Mitosis
Chromosomes form during cell division, specifically during the process of mitosis. During mitosis, the chromosomes condense and line up before being separated into two daughter cells.
No, chromosomes do not undergo crossover during mitosis. Crossover, also known as genetic recombination, occurs during meiosis, not mitosis.
Both autosomes and sex chromosomes separate during mitosis./ Somatic chromosomes separate during mitosis with same number as in the parent cell.
Chromosomes attach to the mitotic spindle during the metaphase of mitosis. Part of the answer depends on how you define the stages of mitosis and not everybody does this the same way. The short answer is all of them.
In meiosis, chromosomes align in pairs during metaphase I, while in mitosis, chromosomes align individually during metaphase.
All chromosomes are reproduced during mitosis.
During metaphase of mitosis, the chromosomes become attached to the spindle fibers.
During the metaphase stage of mitosis, the chromosomes become attached to the spindle apparatus.
